If you have Automatically Adjust Daylight savings, then yes it will change by 1 hour when it supposed to.  If this server is a DC that authenticates logins, then client machines should update to "match" the time on the DC.  If times to not "match" then the logon process will error.  i don't know of a way to have client machines who authenticates to a DC have a different time that the domain controller that it authenticates to.

Patch the machine.  It sounds like you don't have the patch required to adjust when the DST patch kicks in.

@leew - wow didn't realize anyone had eliminated DST!  I also didn't notice questioner was from Austrailia.  Good job with perception.  I would bet you are correct on the patch.

Please check your time zone, and verify the correct DST for your zone.
